Let's Talk Lighting: Baja Designs/ Auxbeam/ Roadshock

[LouNYC]

What's up everyone. I have Baja Designs Pods (amber) on my Jeep and really like them. My plan for my 1958 is for driver/ combo amber pods on the pillars and an amber light bar inside the lower mesh grill.

As much as I live Baja Designs, what is a comparable product? Baja Designs is expensive for a reason, great build quality. Just looking at my options.

I've also been looking for an easy to install light switch panel. Any recommendations?

TIA

I am going with Diode Dyanmics... 8 year warranty! Auxbeam has cheaper but only a 2 year warranty.

I decided to us Baja Designs lights with an Auxbeam switch panel.

Have any install pics?

I don't have my LC yet, on both my FJs I've had driving lights I can use on rural highways and backroads. I'll probably end up wanting the same on the LC. I've been thinking Diode Dynamics since they have street legal driving light patterns.

I have the pods already, waiting for Auxbeam panel to show up. Plenty of Youtube videos showing installation process.

I'll jump right in and say I'm going with the Amazon specials. I had a 42" light bar on my 200 series for 4 years with ZERO issues that cost me $85. Was bright, never failed, never rusted, never fogged up and I was never worried about a tree branch trashing my $1500+ light bar from Rigid or Baja. Also, I'm honestly a little worried about the Rigid fog lights that came with the truck. If a rock hits one of those and I have to replace it, they are going to be even more expensive than a normal OEM light.

I would looks at the Morimoto Banger lineup.
Baja/Diode is great, but dated LED tech - the output on any size in the HXB option is insane.
There's also options to combine pods into lightbars - Lifetime warranty to boot.

Just installed the 20" baja designs bar in the lower front grille.

Looks good! What brackets did you use? Which switch panel are you using?
